Desperate Pleasures
A selection of Dennis Carlyle Darling's photographs with text.
Borrowed Time
"In 2012, Darling began photographing and interviewing the aging and rapidly vanishing population of Holocaust survivors who spent time at the German transit camp and ghetto located at Terezín, a former eighteenth-century military garrison located north of Prague. Many of those imprisoned there were awaiting transport to certain death at Auschwitz and other extermination camps. His sitters were sometimes asked to accompany him to the location of the painful memory to create the picture. Many were photographed within personal spaces and against environmental backdrops that Darling used to create an intimate and evocative portrait, many in a panoramic format. Each vulnerable face exposes a sh...
Borrowed Time
Documentation, through photographs and interviews, of those who survived the unique Nazi ghetto/camp located at Terezín, Czech Republic. Dennis Carlyle Darling has photographed and interviewed hundreds of Holocaust survivors who spent time at the German transit camp and ghetto at Terezín, a former eighteenth-century military garrison located north of Prague. Many of the prisoners were kept there until they could be transported to Auschwitz or other camps, but unlike German captives elsewhere, they were allowed to participate in creative activities that the Nazis used for propaganda purposes to show the world how well they were treating Jews. Although it was not classified as a “death camp,” more than 33,000 prisoners died at Terezín from hunger, disease, and mistreatment. In Borrowed Time, Darling reveals Terezín as a place of painful contradictions, through striking and intimate portraits that retrace time and place with his subjects, the last remnants of those who survived the experience. Returning to sites of painful memories with his interview subjects to photograph them, Darling respectfully depicts these survivors and tells their stories.
Mennonites in Texas
With their distinctive head coverings, plain dress, and quiet, unassuming demeanor, the Mennonites are a distinctive presence within the often flamboyant and proud people of Texas. If you have seen them at a gas station, in a grocery store, or even at the Dallas–Fort Worth airport, you have probably taken note and wondered how they came to be there. In this photographic tour of two Texas Mennonite communities, separated by almost 450 miles, Laura L. Camden and Susan Gaetz Duarte introduce you to the Beachy Amish Mennonites of Lott, a small community of approximately 160 people in Central Texas, and the very different Mennonites of Seminole, a West Texas farming community of more than five ...
